It's honestly random things I experience and feel like writing about for the entertainment of my friends and others. If you don't agree with me I really don't care, so please don't try to piss and moan about my pissing and moaning.

Orange is the New Black: Season 2
Orange is the New Black (ONB from now on) is an interesting show about a female prison who gets visited by Pieper, an affluent, educated, pretty white lady. The show switched quickly from the Pieper pitty show, to really digging into the other characters and season 2 really goes into their backgrounds and it's very good. The cast is very solid and I found out the other day that the captain from Star Trek, I think Voyager (The one with the lady Captain?) plays the great character Red. You'll recognize some of the other characters, but it really is a triumph due to overall strength, not just one character. I strangely thought this show is really good and you actually start caring about the characters and their flaws and problems. It's especially weird since 95% of the show are females in prison (and there is some nudity, so yes, all the stereotypes of women in prison come true). The 2nd season in my opinion is better than the first as the story continues to be less and less about Pieper and even more about the other characters. There's less of Donna from That 70's Show, but she remains a part of it. I certainly think it's worth giving a chance to if you haven't already. Like most shows, give it more than one episode before passing judgement. Strong cast, unique and interesting premise, and boobs, it's a win-win-win.
